Land reclamation — a set of measures to improve soil quality: drainage, irrigation, and erosion control.

Green manure (cover crops) — plants sown to improve soil health. After growing, they are plowed into the soil as a natural "green" fertilizer.

Fungicides — plant protection products used to combat fungal diseases.

Insecticides — chemicals used to control insect pests.

Desiccation — artificial drying of plants before harvest (e.g., soybeans or rapeseed) using special preparations.
